Would a guy supposedly as pround as Arod take a permanent bench on the fanny role if that was the solution? I’d tell him to get comfortable.

Anyway, as Spock said, “there are always possibilities.”

Whatever happens with ARod, he’s ours.
We need RH bats.
Let’s hope he can still be of use to us.

The guy’s reputation is spoiled, and he figures to take another hit this year, but if he can still play, even in a diminished state, that’s a lot of money to eat for PR reasons.

Fact is, Hughsey is going to cost money next season, 1.5x money in fact … and the Yankees aren’t going to pay it, unless he pitches well enough in 2013 that it’s an obvious choice (and that’s almost certainly only if he pitches well enough as a STARTER).

If he’s mediocre, why not try Phelps, or Warren, or whomever … especially if they’re cromulent in ’13???
